Getting Closer




It's been awhile since we have taken the time to update the blog. There is so much going on up at the house that it is hard to get a chance to take any pictures without everything in the way. So here are a few quick ones and then I will try to get some taken this weekend.
Peg's Dad was the very first person to start on this project and continues to support us whenever asked. Here he is cutting us a toe for the start of the first rock wall. (Have we mentioned we have a little rock stacked arround?) With the grading left to go, no doubt he will also be the last person on the job.
The second picture of the master shower shows more of Kurt's work. We are very impessed with his craftsmanship. Thanks to his knowledge each of the tile issues has been dealt with quickly and everything looks great. Wait 'til we get a chance to show you the trees around the fireplace.
The last picture is of the first coat of finish on the floors from the den. It has really made the floors "pop" with color. A-1 Hardwoods out of Newberg have been the sub on this part of the house and to what extent I know anything about it, they have done a very good job.
Things are coming together very quickly now. The electrician is hanging lights, Kurt is finishing the tile, we have one more pass with the plumber, and Ron & Eric are working on everything from siding to trim. They are trying to get us in by the end of the month. We are so ready to move in.
Peg's in Eugene teaching. Let us know what you think and have a great Memorial Day Weekend and thank a Vet for making sure we have holidays. Ron & Peg
